APC by Schneider Electric– Capacity Manager – June 2008 Capacity Manager Summary Balance IT Demand with Physical Infrastructure Capabilities Planning and optimizing utilization of actual power, cooling and rack capacities via shared data center model, enabling efficient equipment provisioning and right-sizing of your data center Predictable Planning Predicts the optimal location for physical infrastructure and rack- based IT equipment based on the availability and requirements of power, cooling and space; and user defined criteria such as redundancy and business use grouping. Capacity Analysis A sophisticated modeling engine, based on real-time data, proactively analyzes the impact of changes before they occur, enabling informed decision making and planning. The result: assurance that your physical infrastructure provides the redundancy, run time and availability required. Inventory Management Robust inventory management application provides a visual model of the room and rack layout. Rack-level views enable easy tracking of IT assets and available space. A detailed, user definable catalog of IT equipment provides device information and physical attributes
